Azithromycin, RECOVERY, and the power of large, simple trials.

A Simple Self-Tuning Resonant Control Approach for Power Converters Connected to Micro-Grids With Distorted Voltage Conditions

Over the last few decades, the consolidated goal of reducing greenhouse gasses has increased the relevance of renewable energy research, electromobility, energy storage, and distributed generation, mi…

A new and simple method for evaluating masticatory function using newly developed artificial test food.

The aim of this study was to develop an objective evaluation system for the masticatory function. This system used paraffin wax cubes as a test food, which had six red- and green-coloured layers so th…

Karyotypic similarity identifies multiple host-shifts of a pathogenic fungus in natural populations.

The detection of incipient host-shifts is important to the study of emergent diseases because it allows the examination of ecological and genetic conditions that favor novel inter-species transmission…

Comparison of the toxicity of smoke from conventional and harm reduction cigarettes using human embryonic stem cells.

This study evaluated the hypothesis that smoke from harm reduction cigarettes impedes attachment and proliferation of H9 human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). Smoke from three harm reduction brands was …

Simple techniques to reduce bowel activity in cardiac SPECT imaging.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Scatter from the bowel degrades image quality in 99mTc sestamibi myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI). Iodinated oral contrast, which has been used to outline bowel in medical imagin…

Rules of connectivity between geniculate cells and simple cells in cat primary visual cortex.

Hundreds of thalamic axons ramify within a column of cat visual cortex; yet each layer 4 neuron receives input from only a fraction of them. We have examined the specificity of these connections by re…
